Hi, I just saw what people are telling may be a female american redstart. It was a very light brown color, it was about 4-5 inches and had bright yellow under its' tail and horizontally on its' tail, the tail ended in a darker brown. I could not see any yellow near the wings. It had a very slight white or pale cream-color eyebrow. Its' chest was a light color and it twitched its' tail a lot. It was foraging in the grass, probably for insects, I guess. It is not a common yellowthroatm for sure. It also hopped and kind of walked. Does anyone down here in south Florida have any ideas what this could be? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
